Abathur is Kerrigan's evolution master, and was under her command when she ruled the Swarm, improving the zerg to become more deadly. Abathur was the one who designed Kerrigan when she was infested by the zerg.

Artanis and Kerrigan fought through the many wars of the sector, with the zerg overrunning Aiur and driving his people off their world. After Kerrigan betrayed and killed Fenix, Raszagal and thousands of other protoss, Artanis attempted a retaliatory strike on her Swarm, which failed.

D.Va played StarCraft in her childhood, and knows of the game and its characters. Kerrigan is not aware of her universe as a game, and is not used to people being a "fan" of her, as she's regarded as a murderer of billions among most humans.

During the final stages of the Second Great War, Kerrigan invaded Korhal to kill Arcturus Mengsk, when he deployed a device named the psi destroyer that could kill the zerg using their connection to the hive mind. As Dehaka was unattached to any hive mind, he and his primal zerg attacked the power links to the psi destroyer while Kerrigan lead a frontal assault.

Tychus was initially sent to kill Kerrigan, but was instead killed by Raynor. Infested Tychus is supposed to be Tychus after he was killed, and ironically now serves Kerrigan, the women he died trying to kill.

Kerrigan and Nova were both ghost agents, psionic supersoldiers, though Kerrigan was slightly more psionically powerful. Many fans have drawn comparisons between the two as they share similar appearances.

Raynor and Kerrigan, during their time in the Sons of Korhal, fell in love, but Kerrigan was betrayed and left to the zerg, then infested. After she was purged of the zerg mutagen, she reverted back to her human personality, and even after becoming infested as a primal zerg she retained her humanity and love for Raynor.

After becoming infested as a primal zerg and rebuilt from the ground up into a completely new and more powerful creature, she was given the same model as the Queen of Blades, only purple colors. This has been an often mocked part of Kerrigan's kit.

A reference to Tassadar's first interaction with Kerrigan "I know you well oh Queen of the Zerg." Also points to the real world time gap between StarCraft and the release of Heroes of the Storm, fifteen years.

After being shot and killed by Raynor after betraying him to try to kill Kerrigan, Tychus's corpse was abandoned on the floor of a Char hive, with Raynor refusing to have his risk their lives to carry the corpse of a traitor.

Zeratul and Kerrigan have a history, as during the Brood War, Kerrigan manipulated Zeratul into doing her bidding twice, the final time resulting in him having to kill his ancient leader Raszagal in order to break Kerrigan's influence over her, a decision that scarred him for the rest of his life. Later, when he discovered Kerrigan was the key to defeating Amon, Zeratul was forced to manipulate events to assure her survival, much to his disdain.

When Kerrigan was inducted to the Terran ConfederacyGhost Program, her psionic power was such they they had to adjust their psionic scale, with Kerrigan being a 10. Nova also reached the level of 10, but was still second to Kerrigan.

After Kerrigan killed Fenix in the Brood War mission True Colors, Raynor promises "It may not be tomorrow darlin'. It may not even happen with an army at my back. But rest assured, I'm the man who's going to kill you someday."

One of Kerrigan's poke quotes from Wings of Liberty. Also a reference to the briefing of the Brood War mission Omega where Kerrigan declares "You see, at this point I'm pretty much the Queen Bitch of the Universe. And not all of your little soldiers and spaceships will stand in my way again."

Kerrigan started off as a human, but was infested and brought into the Zerg Swarm. When Raynor used a relic named the Keystone on her, Kerrigan was mostly reverted to human, and as the conflict wore on she reinfested herself as a primal zerg to get her revenge on Arcturus Mengsk. Later, she would ascend past that and become a xel'naga, with hints in the aftermath that she may have returned to fully human.

The worst part about having a hive mind is knowing exactly how many of your zerglings are licking themselves. At any. Given. Moment.

One of terran queen Kerrigan's poke quotes from Heart of the Swarm. Also a reference to the line "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned", paraphrased from the William Congreve's 1697 play The Mourning Bride.

It takes forever to comb your hair when it keeps fighting you. Literally.
